Here in Central Ohio if one is willing they can get a job right now at Scioto Downs as a "helper" of sorts, more or less cleaning stalls, etc.. In August there are opportunities abound at the most scenic track in America (
 ) Beulah Park. All one has to do is show up at 4am at the gate and someone will most likely put you to work in no time.If you consider working as a Teller, let me offer you this piece of advice. The next Saturday you have an hour or so to spare in the afternoon, go to your local otb parlor, track etc and just hang around and watch the interaction between the bettors and the tellers. Coming from someone who has been a teller before, the job requires PATIENCE and the ability to shrug off rude behavior unlike what you might have seen before. Also, you have to be quick with the numeric pad of course. If by chance you are a female, you just might make some very nice tips. My ugly butt couldn't get a smile Good luck whatever you pursue!

It is a hard life and hard to get. Most places start you as a Hotwalker/groom type person unless ya know someone who knows someone. Pay isn't great to start and it is most of the time from what I understand a 7 day a week job. I haven't heard from my friend in about a month now who headed from FL to NJ following jobs.
Good Luck in your job hunting.

depends how cute you are. I've noticed Pletcher, Lukas etc have stumbled onto some very good looking grooms and assistants. I'd suggest a pushup bra, tight jeans and a willingness to learn might be all that is needed.

No really, I probably won't have to. I'm going to the new jockey academy in Kentucky, and with it comes an internship. I hope that makes my start in racing easier...well, it should.
